Abstract

The purpose of this study is to provide fundamental data for robot-based education at home by analyzing the factors affecting the recognition and technology acceptance attitudes of mothers with young children. For this purpose, a questionnaire survey was administered to 319 mothers with young children in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province, and one-way ANOVA, chi-square, correlation analysis, and regression analysis were conducted for statistical verification. As a result, there was a significant difference in the robot-based education at home of mothers to child according to their final educational background. Mothers' acceptance intention, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, social influence of robot application and personal innovation were all positively correlated. The factors that affect intention of acceptance were perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness of robot application. Conclusively, mothers with young children use robot-based education at home when it is more convenient to use and has educational effects more than the personal innovation or social influence. These study results are meaningful ahead of the 4th industrial revolution in that we provided basic data for the correct direction of robot-based education to young children at home.

본 연구는 영유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니가 가정에서 로봇을 활용하여 교육하는 것에 어떤 인식을 갖고 있으며 로봇을 활용한 기술수용의도에 영향을 미치는 요소가 무엇인지 분석하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 서울, 경기지역의 영유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니 총 319명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며 통계적 검증을 위해 일원변량분석, 카이스퀘어, 상관관계분석, 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 영유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 일반적 배경에 따른 로봇활용교육 실시 여부는 최종학력에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 수용의도와 지각적용이성, 지각적유용성, 혁신의지, 사회적 영향력은 모두 정적상관이 있었다. 셋째, 영유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 로봇활용교육 수용의도에 영향을 미치는 요소는 혁신의지와 사회적 영향력 보다는 지각적용이성, 지각적 유용성임을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과는 영유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니가 가정에서 로봇을 활용한 교육에 대해 어떤 인식을 갖고 있고 그 수용의도가 무엇인지 파악함으로서 4차 산업혁명시대를 앞두고 가정에서 영유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 로봇활용교육의 바른 방향을 위한 기초자료를 제공했다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
